Black Smoke Trigger Release Video For New Single 'Proof Of Life'


New Zealand's most rocking exports, Black Smoke Trigger have announced the release of their explosive new single "Proof of Life", accompanied by a high-octane music video that captures the band's raw performance energy.


Speaking on the the inspiration behind "Proof Of Life", guitarist and band leader, Charlie Wallace shares

“This track came together really fast, I was playing around with an alternate tuning I had never written in before and the main riff just arrived in my hands almost instantly. I took it into the jam room with the guys and very soon we had the first demo done. In the studio with producer Nick Raskulinecz, we played around with lots of guitars to find the right tone, and I think we nailed it. 'Proof Of Life' is about how we often hold ourselves ransom in our own mind, and the inner battles a lot of us face on a daily basis without realising we are in control the whole time. It’s about pushing through and breaking yourself free from things that are holding you back, whatever they may be."
